In some ways it's a wonderful, rich, wise and sophisticated book. In other ways it romantisises parenting and feels a bit judging of most parents. Mainly I just wish that each statement was referenced as the instinctual, opinion and factual claims are all mixed up without any anchor to where the info comes from. I also think the book glorifies parenting in the developing world where, along side the wonderful things it describes, you also have child marriage and FGM etc.
All in all it's definitely worth a read but only when you're in a frame of mind to discriminate and take things "with a pinch of salt*
